Description for Volkswagen SP2 1976
"Road & Track Magazine" just did an Article on this Very Rare 1976 VW SP2
Copy and Pace this to see the Article...It's a Good Read http://roadand.tk/TqvNIYG
Last Pictures I just took today are of the VW SP2 at it's "First Car Show"...People went Nuts for the VW SP2 because they have never seen one Before...And now it is getting a Photo Shoot on Wednesday for a VW Book...
If you didn't know better, you would think this Beautiful 1970tys Sports Car is from a Italian Manufacturer, but actually it's a Special Volkswagen Sold Exclusively in Brazil
The Volkswagen SP2 is the Sexiest Sports Car You've Never Heard of...
This SP2 is "Very Low Mileage" with only 10,482 KM or "6552" Actual Miles from being stored inside and not driven much
The Low Mileage Shows Actual Miles on on the Title.
Has never had any Rust anywhere and never been in an accident...All the Gaps are Good and the Doors Shut Real Nice...This is a well Built VW SP2
The Original Tires that were made in Brazil were still on the car but they were dry rotted and cracked...I still have the Original Tires and the spare...I replaced with new tires so the car could be driven...
I bought this SP2 from the Original Owner. He Flew to Brazil and bought this off the Dealer Show Room New in 1976.
Some of the pictures are from when I first saw the car in the Storage Shed. ( Last Pictures in ebay ad all covered in dust )
I was at the owners house to look at a 1917 Oldsmobile Truck and when I was walking by an old shed .I thought I saw an old Porsche thru the window. I climbed thru the window because the door was locked and they could't find the key the Shed and on the rear deck lid it said VW SP2.
I still thought it was a Porsche because I had never seen a VW-SP2...
There was dust all over the Car and I had to dust off the windows to see inside the Interior...(See Picturesâ€).
Luckily I had my phone with me and was able to Google "VW SP2â€...When I Googled the VW SP2 and saw how Rare it was....I knew I had to try and Buy this Rare Car...
The VW-SP2 was Produced from 1972 thru 1976 in Brazil. Total Production was 10,205
1976 was the Last Year for Production. There was only 100 Produced in 1976 and my car was the First one Built in 1976... My Car is Serial Number of "0000027001â€...This car is the "First" VW SP2 made for the 1976 Production run...
In 1976 Porsche 924 came out which looks Very Similar to the VW SP2 so that is why it is the Last Year made...
These VW SP2 Sports Cars were Sold Exclusively in Brazil
I have read there was Only 2 Imported to United States.
I Contacted Barrett Jackson Auction and they have Never Sold a VW SP2 thru their Auction... I think this VW SP2 will do very well at a Barrett Jackson Auction ...I remember when there was Only One Amphicar at the Auction a few years back and the Bidding went Nuts for the Car.... I am certain this will be the Only VW-SP2 at the Auction...If it does not Sell on E-bay the next place it will be is at a Barrett Jackson Auction...
Most people in the US have ever seen one of these VW SP2 before...
Anyone who has seen my VW SP2 thinks it is an Older Porsche...
1973 July Road & Track Magazine tested the VW-SP2 in Brazil and said it was a well Built Car
Any Articles Written on the VW SP2 have Agreed that this is the Best Looking VW Ever Produced
This VW SP2 Final Production year was 1976 the same year that the Porsche 924 went into Production
From the factory the VW SP2 was given a Larger bore 1678 Displacement Engine and Larger Carburetors...
There was also a Special Cam Shaft Designed for the VW SP2 also
This VW SP2 came from the Factory with a 4-Speed and Front Disc Brakes, Full Gauges with a Tachometer also...
The Original Paint was faded and cracked so I did a New Show Quality Paint with the same color as factory. "See Picturesâ€
The seats are redone in Leather to look just like the Original Seats...I re-did the Bucket Seats because they were cracking...Door Panels are original and very nice...Doors shut real nice. Gaps in hatch and trunk are because they were not latched down in pictures...The Door Gaps are Real Nice.....All Factory out side Trim is in Excellent Condition. Factory Tail Lights and Head lights are all Very Nice.There is a crack in the dash pad.
We Pulled the Spark Plugs...Put Oil in the Cylinders then let it soak and then Hand Cranked the Engine...We Replaced all Fuel Lines...Flushed Out the Gas Tank...Rebuilt the Two Carburetors...It runs nice now...
We Bleed the Brake System and added new fluid, and did an oil change before starting the car...
The last pictures are when I found the VW SP2 in storage
This Rare Car is a Nice Running and Driving Car and a "Rare Car" to add to any Car Collection...
